excelated on a damp road and my arse ended up in the other lane, very lucky there was no car next to me
the following day i sent them off for widening
The rb can bite you in the rain regardless of what tyre you have on, we just have to be careful

it not only RB even NA SR can be just as dangerious in the rain~
my friend's S14 in NZ last week... Wheels are Advan 17" 235/45 front and 255/40 rear Bridgestones



SR20de

i also tippy toe in the wet with the rx and ive got 255/40/17 Advans on the rear!
Not fun......

i have 255/40/17 pirreli p-zero's on the back off my vg30det s13, and i promise you, i dont even consider taking it out if its wet..

Hey bud, rain was epic this morning hey..and bloody chilly ! Pity the day got rained out, thanks for the heads up about the cancellation.

On Wednesday I popped round to Turbo Toys and bought typical ricer sh*t for my car..
A turbo blanky so turbo does not freeze at night...and a chinese HKS ripoff fuel rail and real k*k fittings.
Also went to meneer turbo and bought a meter length of extruded fuel rail.

The original abomination that was fitted to my car leaked fuel like crazy , kept smelling fuel and could not isolate it until last week when I had to take the freddy manifold off to repair a small friggin leaking hose..you know, the one that goes into the block above the starter.. Stephen was at the shop and he pointed the fuel leak out to me..cheers bud.

Tonight I decide to put on HKS ripoff . Luckily I have the right stuff here at my home workshop and just finished it all.
No more leaks and the gauge now holds pressure when switched off. Great stuff ! and the purple does not look to bad.

Oh, and just to cement my ricer`ness I got a set of red
wheel nuts but they actually look rather lekker..

BK .. are you getting my emails / PM's ?

Really been battling getting more fuel up top. 650 cc injectors are massive and should sort it out no problem.

Yesterday I was fooling around with a banjo fitting on the new rail when I casually look at the part number on the injectors.

They are still small little 440cc injectors. Fcuk. Explains why they not flowing what I thought were 650cc injectors.

"Small update

Added 650cc injectors with s/steel topmount rail.
Smax fuel pressure regulator.
boosting 12psi atm. car is going lekke
I also received this today. "

Once again Alistair, you been duped out of your money bud.

Ordering bigger injectors today from Dicktator..
